Which term refers to on-the-job training in a trade, usually with pay?

• A. Job Shadowing
• B. Career Outlook
• C. International Career Outlook
• D. Apprenticeship

Answer: (D)

Apprenticeship is the term for on-the-job training in a trade, usually with pay. It combines hands-on work under a skilled supervisor with related classroom instruction and typically lasts several years, ending in a recognized credential or journeyman status. This paid, structured training is what sets it apart from other terms. Job shadowing, for example, is mainly about watching someone perform tasks and isn’t a formal training program or paid employment. Career outlook and international career outlook describe future job prospects and demand in a field, not how you train for it. Thus, apprenticeship best matches the description.
